CBN Weekly Interviews Joan Saba on Healthcare Design

Chinese Business News Weekly — a leading business magazine in China — interviewed NBBJ Partner Joan Saba on the importance of designing hospitals that are more than just functional buildings. “Healthcare design has deep emotional ties with daily life,” said Saba. “[Healthcare design] meets the needs of experience. For the patients and their family members, they can live a more comfortable life here; for the medical staff, the hospital can provide them with better rest and various scales of working environments. We know that the environment is of great significance to people's health.”
